Thanks for the heads up on Nestle. I had not heard of their business practices and just 2 days ago I had a YT vid come up about the history of Nestle Corp. I HAD NO CLUE! Mr Nestle, the original founder had good intentions by developing infant formula for mothers that could not breastfeed their babies. The formula he came up with at least gave the babies a chance to THRIVE & SURVIVE. He made a fortune with the formula and then sold the Nestle business when profits began taking a downward spiral. The greedy 3 gentlemen that bought Nestle decided to hire women that posed as nurses to visit new mothers to encourage continued use of the infant formula. Advertising pushed the infant formula but they changed the formula which caused MANY deaths of babies due to malnutrition. To save the reputation of their once infamous formula, they started pushing BREAST FEEDING so the general public would see that Nestle was on board with the health & well-being of babies but of course, their true intentions were kind of like reverse psychology and it was as businesses now days trying to increase sales no matter what they had to tell the public to convince them of their narrative. 3rd world countries that didn’t have access to CLEAN WATER were mixing the formula with dirty water causing sickness & death of the babies.
Then the 3 partners decided to monopolize the CANDY/Chocolate industry and joined forces with their chocolate production/sales. They had a game plan to keep their prices so as not to be competitive with each other’s products so they had the monopoly of the candy industry. Typical GREED of those to CONTROL the money flow and destroy their competitors.

I could go on with their other nefarious actions but they turned out to be like our modern day companies/corporations where they were only concerned with sales of their products and to remain in control of SALES. I now understand your concern of their business practices.

Then a vid came up about the Coca Cola business but haven’t finished watching that video. Is there any true and honest businesses in operation these days…we all know the answers to that.

I checked out the Azure products with the link you sent and will be purchasing from them with my next order.
I’m glad I prefer chocolates from other companies over Nestle but since I don’t eat a lot of candies that isn’t a big deal with me. I also had no clue about Nescafe coffee they developed to put in the soldiers rations and other products they’ve developed & used throughout the years. All for the love of money, greed and sales. I was really surprised to see that most of the products on the market these days are affiliated with NESTLE or owned by them…Libby’s, General Mills, etc.
Thanks for the eye-opening HEADS UP I had no clue existed, but honestly not surprised in the least.
